Nice job on the template.

For those that don't have photo access to the NCRS site photos...

Differences in core support vertical side mounts.
'65 SB


'66 SB


'67 BB



Valence from a '66 SB . (Be aware of the black shadow-line which can play tricks on your eyes.)


















Valence from a'67 BB.





















Also, don't let the AIM UPC 12 A4 trick you. The '66 & '67 AIM uses the old '63-'65 reference diagram showing the L-bracket in the rearward hole area. The hole for the L-bracket moves forward apx 2", and note the L-bracket end that contacts the valence is reversed from the '63-'65 orientation.

The right valnece cutout is not shown in the AIM anywhere as it was done to aid the body drop during alignment of the body to clear the radiator lower outlet area as described by John Z recently.
